Join the Great Wall Guard

Chapter 37 Peony

Why did the names of Li Xin and King Lanling appear on the mouth of the dead soldier?

Could it be that Li Xin has rebelled?

It is still too early to draw conclusions.

But why is King Lanling here again?

Who is the person who has not been mentioned by the soldiers?

The bitter cold wind blows, piercing the heart.

What makes people feel ominous is not only the confusing death, but also the mysterious figure hovering behind the death.

Who is leading all this?

In that endless desert, what kind of terrible conspiracy is there?

Hua Mulan's expression became more serious, and she could faintly feel that this might be a new crisis.

Moreover, this crisis seems to be much bigger than the previous ones

The Great Wall is facing a storm

The more she thinks deeply, the closer she gets to a feeling of palpitation in the depths of Hua Mulan's soul, and that ominous premonition gets closer to herself.

"Miss Mulan."

Approaching the steel-like back standing in the cold wind was another firm voice.

The throbbing in her heart was suddenly interrupted, Hua Mulan turned her body slightly, and Lu Yu's figure came into view.

"No matter what, I will never let go of those guys who give you headaches."

With a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, he put his hands on Hua Mulan's shoulders lightly and lightly, and made a "pop" sound, breaking the originally silent atmosphere.

"It's not some simple character that can give me a headache."

Looking back and smiling, Hua Mulan stared at Lu Yu with a gentleness like water in her eyes.

For the first time, Hua Mulan realized that Lu Yu was really tall, nearly half a head taller than herself, so she had to raise her head to meet his gaze.

However, with Lu Yu standing behind her, Hua Mulan suddenly felt much more relaxed.

Yes, I am not fighting alone, there are reliable companions, as well as Lu Yu.

"You guard the Great Wall, and I will guard you."

The previous words were recalled in my mind again, and what also emerged was that firm gaze, just like now.

Then, I shouldn't fall behind even more.

My sister is a legend!

No matter what kind of crisis, Hua Mulan will definitely wipe it out with the sharp sword in her hand.

This is her belief, no matter what kind of difficulties stand in front of her, she will not be afraid, and will definitely burn them all with the determination to win.

Seeing Hua Mulan's black eyebrows from tightening to gradually stretching out, Lu Yu also smiled knowingly.

"Ding! Hua Mulan's favorability has increased by 20 points!"

"Huh? This is"

When everyone was about to leave this place and follow the traces left on the ground to the depths of the desert, Lu Yu discovered a special place.

In the arms of the dead soldier, there was something that shone bewitchingly under the silver moonlight.

"Peony?"

Picking up the petals, Lu Yu recognized the species of this flower, which was peony, under the moonlight which was not so bright.

Although it is only a petal, it still exudes a charming fragrance, which makes people intoxicated. Even though it has fallen, it is still coquettish, as if in full bloom.

"The death of the peony without any trace"

A vague figure gradually appeared in his mind, but Lu Yu couldn't immediately call out the person's name.

"hehe"

However, the figure that appeared in his mind seemed to be alive, and he laughed mockingly, terrifying and evil.

"Who are you?!"

He yelled at the figure, but he didn't turn his head, just stood there silently. Finally, the purple peonies bloomed, completely hiding his figure.

"Haha, have you been found?"

In a place of flying yellow sand, an indistinct figure whispered at this time, and the magic weapon in front of his chest was blooming with dazzling purple awns.

"It seems that the variables in the hexagram are indeed not simple."

To be able to rely on the peony left behind to get close to his own identity, the one named Lu Yu is a bit interesting.

However, you won't find me so easily, that peony already contains illusions, and you will have no way of knowing my identity

"Fortune is for misfortune, misfortune is for hum! Fortune is for relying on."

With a cold snort, the white-clothed alchemist's mouth curled into an evil smile.

"Although you are an odd number, in my hexagram, since it can save you, it will also make you desperate, and it will be your important person in the end."

"Pathetic fellow."

With a wave of the sleeve robe, the figure of the alchemist in white disappeared into the flying sand, leaving only a blooming peony, poignant and alluring.

"Lu Yu, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Lu Yu's suddenly weird expression, Hua Mulan hurriedly asked with concern.

"No, I'm a little motion sick, ah, a little horse sick, I've been riding a horse all day today, and my mind is a little dizzy."

Lu Yu pretended to be innocent and smiled.

The poignant and beautiful peony just now has gone with the wind and turned into ashes.

However, an extremely ominous feeling arises spontaneously from the bottom of my heart.

It may be different from the previous killing intent and chill, this ominousness seems to be related to the figure that appeared in Dao's mind just now.

Lu Yu decided to bury it in his heart for the time being. He didn't want to let it add pressure to Hua Mulan.

"If there is anything uncomfortable, be sure to tell me."

Hua Mulan's expression was very serious. She could clearly see Lu Yu's reluctance, but she didn't expose him.

Is it because you don't want to worry yourself?

What a fool.

As the troops continued to advance, more and more corpses appeared on the desert, but this time it was different from before, the blood was spilled all over the desert, dyeing the yellow gravel red.

This scene, even under the moon, is still heroic.

"This is the army of the Protectorate!"

The corpses lying on the ground were all soldiers of the Protectorate's Mansion without exception, and it was obvious that they had been slaughtered.

But, it was very strange, since it was a fight, there should be enemies, but after searching the surroundings, they did not find any corpses of monsters or bandits.

Especially after checking the wounds on everyone's corpses, Hua Mulan was shocked.

"how come?!"

At this moment, even Hua Mulan couldn't believe her eyes.

However, the fact was right in front of her eyes, and she had to accept it.

These soldiers all died at the hands of their own people.

But why

The smell of blood irritated the nose, and the deathly silence was buried in the wind and sand.

"these people"

For these tragic situations, Lu Yu was not as repulsive as before. He calmed down and carefully observed the situation on the scene.

Maybe, we can find clues about that mysterious figure again.

PS: There are only two updates, good night everyone
